QRCS launches the “Devotion To Gaza” campaign
Qatar Red Crescent Society (QRCS) launched a QR 10 million fundraising campaign under the title #DevotionToGaza, with the purpose of executing a series of early recovery programs for 57,896 people impacted by the latest Israeli onslaught on Gaza.
Secretary-General of QRCS Ambassador Ali bin Hassan Al Hammadi said, “The tragedy of Gaza continues, with recurrent wars and 15 years of blockade. Once again, Israeli occupation forces have just attacked Gaza, causing the Palestinians there even more pain and suffering. Incessant airstrikes destroyed people’s homes and rendered them and their wives and children feeling unsafe”.
“Listening to their imploring voices, Qatar Red Crescent Society (QRCS) extends a humanitarian hand from the people of Qatar to relieve their wounds and support them amid such difficult conditions. A QR 10 million emergency humanitarian response is launched to secure food, health, water and sanitation, and shelter aid, with a view to removing the impact of war, fostering Gaza’s resilience, and enabling recovery from this ordeal,” he said.
Many life-saving projects will be implemented in the health sector, including help and rehabilitation services, digging water wells and creating water supply systems, restoring and rehabilitating destroyed houses, and providing one-time cash assistance according to the humanitarian intervention plan set by QRCS under license from the Regulatory Authority for Charitable Activities (RACA).
To accomplish these projects, QRCS reported it will be working with the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS).
